Demand the IRS investigate the NRA's non-profit for misappropriation of funds!
The National Rifle Association Federal Tax-Exempt status 501(c)(4) must be re-examined.
There's a long history of misappropriation of funds by the NRA's nonprofit arm. The NRA has admitted that funds from their non-profit have been used to make former and current executives richer, not to exclusively promote social welfare. The IRS needs to fully investigate the organization that has a huge impact on all of our lives.
Why is this important?
Gun control bills, such as H.R.8 and H.R.1446 have passed in the House but stalled in the Senate. This is, in large part, due to the NRA investing millions of dollars to influence lawmakers. The NRA non-profit status allows them to increase profits for the gun industry, at the expense of all of our lives. The mounting evidence against them—in terms of how they handle their non-profit funds—only increases every year.
The government works for the people, and the IRS can take action to protect the most vulnerable in our society by investigating the NRA for misappropriation of funds.
